I can finally step away from the news sites. Phew. So relieved for Boston.
@stkilda The Boston thing? Front page of every newspaper. I haven’t bothered with TV news, but I’m sure there too.
The bread photos are killing me. (AND YES, I AM TOTALLY TALKING ABOUT @randomknits.)

@katejf The Kate Davies pattern? I think @crumpet has.
@ozdj BVT? Another acronym. My spreadsheet is well up over 100 of them now…
Adventures in Omnivorism: @the_snook is currently roasting a goat’s leg for our dinner. It smells FANTASTIC. #paleo
@eobeara I think I’ve tried it in curry, but never roasted. We saw them last week at a specialty meat shop and couldn’t resist!

Woohoo! New PM wants me at CBD office three days a week. Short commute FTW.
@Opheli8 Yep! Theoretically even walk part of the way with @the_snook, except he is a lazy slacker and goes in way later.
Waiting for the Snook so he can walk me home for the first time! (@ Darling Quarter) http://t.co/KfmBpaBbLV
@witty_knitter @stufromoz @SandraHW I am also a massive fan if this app. Cook from it nearly every night!
@ozdj Okay, that’s hilarious. The guy that owns that scooter lives on my street in Chippo! It’s parked by my house all the time. π
@ozdj Working on a Saturday again?

Laurel Dress
Don’t tell anyone in CorporateLand, but I’m wearing a self-made dress today! #laurel @saraiatcolettepatterns
So yeah, I finished another dress! This is Laurel from Colette Patterns. It’s a very versatile shift dress, and I opted to make a sleeveless version (since I didn’t have much fabric). The fabric itself is a stretch cotton that I got at Fabric-a-brac last year. I actually cut it too large at first, not realising how much ease it had in it. I then went back and took in the side seams, which helped it fit a lot better. I did have an issue with the back neck gaping, which I’m not sure is attributable to the fit or whether I stretched it out when applying the bias binding. Miss Fee was kind enough to pin out the excess for me, so I then added a few darts there to take it in. I’ll know enough to make lots of changes for my next one! It’s a very simple and quick pattern, and I think I’ll be able to use it for work wear – in a more somber print, of course. π

@clepetit @henrytapia Expat edition: I’d leave the Clock app with world times set, so Grandpa doesn’t try to call me at 2am.
@Helen__H Oh god no. Staying up til 11:30 probably precludes that. π
My actual work shoes, since so many of you are worried I’m wearing sneakers! http://t.co/MzvzlUQsDE
@pradsword I’m wearing it right now! My only complaint is that it doesn’t sync with my phone and the Bluetooth dongle is so tiny.
@drkknits I had that. And then I decided simply delete the thing that pissed me off. The Internet is awesome that way. π
On the bus to the CBD office, where I shall finish out the week. Yay! Who’s going to M&S knitting tonight? @knitterjp @aunty_toots @Yarna_
Email from Sportscraft. They have introduced Liberty PAJAMAS! Paging @randomknits…
Decided to reward myself for a good day with a Diet Coke. CBA vending machine doesn’t have Diet Coke. You win again, universe.
@randomknits I wonder if the cats could be persuaded to get me a pressie… (*cough* @the_snook *cough*)
@RoseRed_Shoes My laziness wins out.
@RoseRed_Shoes Also, I’m a tightarse. *sigh*
@witty_knitter @SandraHW @randomknits @thesiswhisperer It’s going to make Guild Camp so much more fun!
@richbuggy Did it make you calmer or angrier? π
@pinkcatknits @RoseRed_Shoes Yes, but that was a one-off novelty that I regretted the second I tasted them. π
@pradsword Well, it provides the data. It’s pretty much up to the user to decide what to do with it. I now have proof that my sleep is crap.
@knitterjp @aunty_toots I am lacing up my sneakers right now! Be there shortly. π

You know who talks sense? @knitterjp talks sense. The next time I am tempted to feed a troll, I am going to stop and think: WWJPD?
@miss_reecie @drkknits @RoseRed_Shoes Only if you wear it with a turban and a LOT of eye shadow.

@drkknits @knitterjp But you have a tiny sexy Mac. I’m carrying a giant lump of a Dell, and I need to distribute weight better.
@mrs_sockvictim @witty_knitter @surrenderdotty Actually that’s the cardy!
@surrenderdotty @drkknits @knitterjp This isn’t really for transport. It’s for walking. And my current shoulder/cross-body solution hurts.
@zephyrama Agreed. And tights!!
